Abstract Background Colorectal cancer is a major public concern, being the second deadliest cancer in the world. Whereas survival is high for localized forms, metastatic colorectal cancer has showed poor prognosis, with a 5-year survival barely surpassing 11%. Conventional chemotherapies against this disease proved their efficiency and remain essential in first-line treatment. However, the large number of authorized protocols complexifies treatment decision. In common practice, such decision is made on an empirical basis, by assessing benefits and risks for the patient. In other words, there is currently no efficient means of predicting the efficacy of any chemotherapy protocol for metastatic colorectal cancer. Methods/design The use of a chemosensitivity assay, the Oncogramme®, should help clinicians administer the best chemotherapy regimen to their patients. We hypothesize it would ultimately improve their survival. In this multicentred, prospective trial (ONCOGRAM), eligible patients with metastatic colorectal cancer are randomized to determine whether they will receive an Oncogramme®. For clinicians whose patients benefited from the assay (arm A), results are used as a decision support tool. Patients not undergoing the Oncogramme® procedure are treated according to current practice, without the assistance of the assay (arm B). Primary outcome is 1-year progression-free survival. Secondary outcomes include response rates, as well as 6-month and 1-year survival rates. Discussion This study aims at investigating the clinical utility of the Oncogramme® as a decision support tool for the treatment of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. If the Oncogramme® positively influenced patient overall survival and/or progression-free survival, it would be of great value for clinicians to implement this assay within the current landscape of personalized medicine tools, which include genomics and biomarker assays.

619 Background: The benefits of matching targeted treatments to aberrations identified by molecular profiling (MP) is unclear. Outcomes in phase 1 settings have been traditionally reported across tumor histologies. We report outcomes based on a metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) population. Methods: Patients (pts) with mCRC receiving at least one dose of treatment on a phase 1 study were annotated for variants detected by MP. A precision oncology decision support (PODS) team determined variant function and actionability. A matched therapy (MT) was defined as allocation to a novel agent that targeted the aberration or predicted pathway deemed actionable by PODS. Progression-free survival (PFS) was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. A Cox proportional hazards model was used to estimate hazard ratios (HR). Results: A total of 370 patients enrolled onto 467 phase 1 trials were identified from January 2012 to April 2017. 106 enrolments were assigned to MT. Pts with microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H), BRAFV600E, PIK3CA mutation were more likely to be assigned a MT, while left-sided tumors and RAS mutant patients were less likely to be treated with a MT. Molecularly-targeted regimens (MTR) were utilized more frequently in MT while immune-targeting MTR was more common in non-MT. BRAFV600E mutations and HER2 amplification/overexpression made up 44.3% of MT. There was a significant difference in PFS between the MT vs non-MT group (HR 0.65, 95% CI 0.51-0.83, p = 0.016) in univariate analysis. The 6-month PFS probability was 31% (95% CI; 23-41%) versus 13% (95% CI; 10-17%) respectively. Other significant factors in univariate analysis associated with longer PFS were MSI-H, BRAFV600E and use of a regimen containing cytotoxic chemotherapy while RAS mutations were associated with shorter PFS. In multivariate analysis, after correcting for mutation status, allocation to a MT was associated with improved PFS (HR = 0.72, 95% CI 0.50-0.99, p = 0.043). Conclusions: Matching clinical trial enrollment to MP based on dedicated decision support is associated with improved outcomes in mCRC patients. The MT strategy is still hampered by a limited number of actionable variants, and is driven by a small number of active MTs.

AbstractThere is an unmet medical need for later-line treatment options for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Considering that, beyond progression, co-treatment with bevacizumab and cytotoxic chemotherapy showed less toxicity and a significant disease control rate, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy of capecitabine and bevacizumab. This single-center retrospective study included 157 patients between May 2011 and February 2018, who received bevacizumab plus capecitabine as later-line chemotherapy after progressing with irinotecan, oxaliplatin, and fluoropyrimidines. The study treatment consisted of bevacizumab 7.5 mg/kg on day 1 and capecitabine 1,250 mg/m2 orally (PO) twice daily on day 1 to 14, repeated every 3 weeks. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). The median PFS was 4.6 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 3.9–5.3). The median overall survival (OS) was 9.7 months (95% CI 8.3–11.1). The overall response rate was 14% (22/157). Patients who had not received prior targeted agents showed better survival outcomes in the multivariable analysis of OS (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.59, 95% CI 0.43–0.82, P = 0.002) and PFS (HR = 0.61, 95% CI 0.43–0.85, P = 0.004). Bevacizumab plus capecitabine could be a considerably efficacious option for patients with mCRC refractory to prior standard treatments.

The Impact

In the RECOURSE trial which lead to its accreditation, Lonsurf (trifluridine/tipiracil) was shown to extend progression free survival (PFS) by 1.8 months in metastatic colorectal cancer. This Trust audit aims to assess the average quantity of cycles of Lonsurf received by participants and the length of time it extends PFS. Similarly, to identify how many participants required a dose-reduction or experienced toxicities which necessitated supportive therapies. Quantitative data was collected retrospectively from all participants who had received ≥1 cycle of Lonsurf from The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre (CCC) from 2016 until June 2020. Participant electronic patient records were accessed to identify toxicity grading, length of treatment received, the date progression was identified, if dose reductions were applied and if supportive therapies were administered. Lonsurf extends PFS in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer at CCC by 3.0 months (95% CI: 2.73–3.27) and average treatment length was 2.4 months. However, 78 participants (41.5%) received a dose reduction due to toxicities. A total of 955 toxicities were recorded by participants; the most commonly reported toxicities irrespective of grade were fatigue (33.8%), diarrhoea (13.8%) and nausea (12.3%). The most common grade ≥3 toxicities were constipation and infection. The most frequently utilised supportive therapies were loperamide (49.6%) and domperidone (49.1%). Granulocyte colony stimulating factor (GCSF) was required by patients on 5 occasions (0.3%) in total. Lonsurf extends median PFS in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer by 3.0 months. The most common grade ≥3 toxicities which necessitated supportive therapies or a dose reduction were gastrointestinal and infection.

Abstract Background FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab is used as a first-line therapy for patients with unresectable or metastatic colorectal cancer. However, there are no clear recommendations for second-line therapy after FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab combination. Here, we describe our planning for the EFFORT study to investigate whether FOLFIRI plus aflibercept has efficacy following FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab for mCRC. Methods EFFORT is an open-label, multicenter, single arm phase II study to evaluate whether a FOLFIRI plus aflibercept has efficacy following FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab for mCRC. Patients with unresectable or metastatic colorectal cancer who received FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab as a first-line therapy will receive aflibercept and FOLFIRI (aflibercept 4 mg/kg, irinotecan 150 mg/m2 IV over 90 min, with levofolinate 200 mg/m2 IV over 2 h, followed by fluorouracil 400 mg/m2 bolus and fluorouracil 2400 mg/m2 continuous infusion over 46 h) every 2 weeks on day 1 of each cycle. The primary endpoint is progression-free survival (PFS). To achieve 80% power to show a significant response benefit with a one-sided alpha level of 0.10, assuming a threshold progression-free survival of 3 months and an expected value of at least 5.4 months, we estimated that 32 patients are necessary. Secondary endpoints include overall survival, overall response rate, safety, and exploratory biomarker analysis for differentiating anti-VEGF drug in 2nd-line chemotherapy for unresectable or metastatic colorectal cancer. Discussion This is the first study to investigate whether FOLFIRI plus aflibercept has efficacy following FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab for unresectable or metastatic colorectal cancer. Switching to a different type of anti-VEGF drug in second-line therapy after FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab appears to be an attractive treatment strategy when considering survival benefit. It is expected that this phase II study will prove the efficacy of this strategy and that a biomarker for drug selection will be discovered.

Purpose The Gruppo Oncologico Nord Ovest (GONO) conducted a phase III study comparing fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan (FOLFOXIRI [irinotecan 165 mg/m2 day 1, oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2 day 1, leucovorin 200 mg/m2 day 1, fluorouracil 3,200 mg/m2 48-hour continuous infusion starting on day 1, every 2 weeks]) with infusional fluorouracil, leucovorin, and irinotecan (FOLFIRI). Methods Selection criteria included unresectable metastatic colorectal cancer, age 18 to 75 years, and no prior chemotherapy for advanced disease. The primary end point was response rate (RR). Results A total of 244 patients were randomly assigned. An increase of grade 2 to 3 peripheral neurotoxicity (0% v 19%; P < .001), and grade 3 to 4 neutropenia (28% v 50%; P < .001) were observed in the FOLFOXIRI arm. The incidence of febrile neutropenia (3% v 5%) and grade 3 to 4 diarrhea (12% v 20%) were not significantly different. Responses, as assessed by investigators, were, for FOLFIRI and FOLFOXIRI, respectively, complete, 6% and 8%; and partial, 35% and 58%, (RR, 41% v 66%; P = .0002). RR confirmed by an external panel was 34% versus 60% (P < .0001). The R0 secondary resection rate of metastases was greater in the FOLFOXIRI arm (6% v 15%; P = .033, among all 244 patients; and 12% v 36%; P = .017 among patients with liver metastases only). Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were both significantly improved in the FOLFOXIRI arm (median PFS, 6.9 v 9.8 months; hazard ratio [HR], 0.63; P = .0006; median OS, 16.7 v 22.6 months; HR, 0.70; P = .032). Conclusion The FOLFOXIRI regimen improves RR, PFS, and OS compared with FOLFIRI, with an increased, but manageable, toxicity in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer with favorable prognostic characteristics. Further studies of FOLFOXIRI in combination with targeted agents and in the neoadjuvant setting are warranted.
